TENACIOUS: Cancer’s are persistent people who love to stick to the plans or goals that they set for themselves. If a Cancer decides that they will be the first Samoan American President then they will become the first Samoan American President. This attitude makes them the unlikely leader that hierarchs like to appoint to positions of leadership such as football captain or supervisors. This determination is an admirable quality that makes for a successful driven person but it can also manifest as stubbornness, which is definitely the case in my own boyfriend who is a Cancer to the core. He thinks we’re going to have AT LEAST three sons, who are all going to be mega athletes that follow in the footsteps of Kobe Bryant, Michael Vick, and Floyd Mayweather. Mind you he only has nieces, so I’m thinking the likelihood of this happening is highly unlikely. This completely idealistic notion that he is holding on to steadfast, completely contradicts the otherwise rather intelligent and rational person that he normally is. The majority of the time I admire his ambition but when a silly notion becomes a part of his goal list, I’m truly afraid because I know he WILL make it happen. I guess it’s time to start picking out baby names, how does Waylando Robertson II look on the back of a jersey??

COMPASSIONATE: Cancers are very compassionate people. They are good at listening and mediating situations because they are such caring people. They are sensitive individuals who are extremely intuitive. If you’re having a bad day and have a Cancer in your life they will pick up on it immediately, and the standard “I’m Fine” won’t cut it for them. They love to help others and are always willing to go the extra mile just to make sure you’re comfortable. They tend to be really involved in the community whether it is church, pee wee football, or BGLO’s.

GOOD MEMORY: Ginkgo biloba is not necessary for Cancer’s, because they have such a great memory. Cancer’s remember everything, and when I say everything I mean EVERYTHING!! They remember early childhood memories, anniversaries, and even exactly what they ate last week. As ridiculous as this may sound it is completely true. Just the other day my boyfriend was like our “anniversary” was coming up, I replied “Really, Are you sure”?? He said “Yes, we started going out on August 21st so it’s about to be our four month “anniversary”. I chose not to correct him and say “anni” is a prefix that only applies to things that happen once a year, but I digress. My point is he remembers little details that I am completely incapable of remembering he should be glad if I remember our actual anniversary as opposed to all of these minuscule milestones.

MOODY: Talk about crabby creatures, Cancer’s can be truly moody at times. They can be relaxed one moment then hyped the next. This may seem like you’re dealing with a difficult individual but most of the time their mood change is fueled because they easily feel slighted. Cancer’s are very sensitive creatures and are therefore offended quite easily. However, if you are able to identify the cause of the offense, compromise, and make amends they will quickly forgive as long as they value the relationship between the two of you.

PROTECTIVE: Cancer’s are very protective individuals. They value friendship and family very much and love to have a comfortable home. Anyone or anything that threatens those dear to a Cancer are in for a rude awakening. Cancers will fight tooth and nail to protect their loved ones and their home. They love security, money, food and children all of the components that make up a happy home. They tend to run their home like a business because financial stability is always one of their main goals. All life decisions of each family member will be strategically calculated by the Cancer because they see all actions ONLY as a means to help the family prosper and move up in life.

LOVE & SEX: Now To The Juicy Stuff

Relationship Desires: A positive relationship for Cancer’s must be one that combines constant affection with financial stability. If the Cancer feels inept financially it will begin to be a heavy burden within the relationship. Cancers work HARD for their money, so a partner with no regard for the value of money will make the crab very crabby. A Cancerian expects to be loved unconditionally forever because that is the kind of love they reciprocate. They can become heavily attached to their partner because they love affection and the comfort of being in a steady relationship. Even if the relationship starts to deteriorate they will cling more tightly because they often confuse emotional hunger for love. Being their partners personal Superman/Superwoman fuels Cancers ego because they love feeling powerful. This definitely applies to my before mentioned boyfriend who loves to be my Clark Kent. I rather enjoy it because I am a bit of an attention whore and crave lots of pampering. I also know I can handle my own business, so why not “Let him be the king, but watch the queen conquer” Nicki Minaj circa 2010 CE. Lastly, Cancer’s like to feel appreciated this even applies to something that seems so trivial like their cooking. My boyfriend made be a batch of French toast last week and it was absolutely AWFUL, he used too much nutmeg GROSS!! I being the overly expressive drama queen that I am let him know just how bad. He looked intensely hurt as I gagged on it. After looking at his expression I realized I hurt his feelings and proceeded to get one more piece down before he said “That bad, huh”?? Then we both laughed it off,
I could tell he appreciated me for trying and I loved him just for cooking even if it was disgusting.

Sexual Desires: Love and Sex are synonymous to most Cancer’s, which also applies to love and marriage. Typical Cancer’s are very relaxed when it comes to “doing the do” and have and uncomplicated sex life. They have a very relaxed attitude when it comes to sex and prefer being in a secure location where they feel comfortable. Cancer’s tend to become attach to those that they are sleeping with. This is not always a bad thing if the person whom they are dealing with is willing to reciprocate, however if they aren’t the Cancer will retreat after the rejection. They are attentive lovers that will work hard to makes sure that their partner is completely satisfied, or at least my Cancer man does. Since, Cancer’s are so intuitive they will see right through anyone “faking it” so be honest and direct with your mate if your needs are not being met, this applies to males and females.
